We’re Going to King’s Camp!

This year, our youth group, Quest Students, is splitting up and sending middle schoolers to summer camp and doing something different with our high schoolers (more info on that to come). However, with this change, we are also able to include our elementary kids going into 4th and 5th grades. You read that right, any of our students GOING INTO 4th grade…

The Good Life

What a beautiful time of the year!  Spring is usually a fabulous time of transition from our exhaustion with the cold and stark days of winter to the dog days of summer.  I know that many of us actually like the cold and snow, while others of you love the sweaty, intensity of summer (did you catch my bias there?). Regardless, I…

Easter: What’s the Big Deal?

Each and every year, Christians around the world celebrate Easter.  Along with Christmas, Easter is one of the two ‘biggies’ in the church, as it should be.  My concern, however, is this: does familiarity breed contempt, even with the ‘biggies’?  Have we come to the point where these celebrations have become “white noise,” something that is so familiar that we actually don’t…

Who Owns Quest?

Questioning “who owns Quest” in not a question we actually ask very often, at least not very often in a clear and concise way, but subtly I think we all wonder who is ‘large and in charge’??? Like many of us who own homes, the property that houses the Quest ‘family’ is still largely owned by the bank 🙂  And just to…

Walk the Walk is a Life of Maturity

In the 21st century, we are seduced to turn the Christian life into an experience of fun and excitement, into health and wealth, into easy fixes and smooth sailing, or into self fulfillment and acquisition.  The problem comes when it turns out to be not much fun and is less than exciting.  We become disillusioned when health and wealth alludes us.  When…

Men and Their Traps

In recent days, the news has been full of stories about well known, powerful and famous men making giant mistakes and creating enormous problems.  R. Kelly, Robert Kraft, Jussie Smollett, Matt Lauer… to name just a few.  What do each of these men have in common? The lure of the human heart to satisfy our needs in ways that actually create bigger…

QUEST CANCELLED – March 3rd

It’s official, Quest is cancelling services and events today. The timing of the snow is tricky with the time of our service, but keeping safety at the forefront, cancelling makes sense. However, check the message archive for a video message from Kevin!

The Haiti Update You’ve Been Waiting For…

As always, Bob Shelton was with the group this trip and he brought two additional guests: Chris Polski and Bill Elzilnger – who were introduced to WISH and their mission. Andrew Seley is…

Four Important Questions Each of Us Need to Ponder

Recently I have been wrestling with the cultural issues of our day.  We live in the midst of tremendous division and conflict all around us.  The political arena seems to have taken on an unfortunate lead position in the divisive and conflictual wrangling in the media, as well as in our communities.  On the other hand, our culture seems to have become…
